I would love too! They're just a bit too expensive for me though. I've kind
of sworn off brand new cars anyway. I usually look for things 3+ years old.
Came close to buying a used Land Rover a few years back instead of the
Caravan we have, but wasn't too sure about the reliability at the time. In
all honestly the van is probably better with the kids right now anyway.
What's probably a good breakpoint year for recent British cars - the year
that they started getting good again?
I keep telling my wife I'm going to get rid of the van and get a late 70's
Rolls that a place nearby has for 15,000! ;-)
